Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor size and computed tomography attenuation of pulmonary pure ground-glass nodules are useful for predicting pathological invasiveness.

TL;DR: Tumor size and CT attenuation were predictive factors of pathological invasiveness for pulmonary GGNs and facilitated more accurate prediction of invasive adenocarcinoma than the use of these factors independently.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of the MYC-Regulated Glutaminase Metabolic Axis Is an Effective Synthetic Lethal Approach for Treating Chemoresistant Ovarian Cancers.

TL;DR: O ovarian cancer cells overexpressing glutaminase (GLS), a target of MYC and a key enzyme in glutaminolysis, are intrinsically resistant to platinum-based chemotherapy and are enriched with intracellular antioxidant glutathione, suggesting consideration of applying a combined therapy of GLS inhibitor and PARP inhibitor to treat chemoresistant ovarian cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

T cell-inflamed phenotype and increased Foxp3 expression in infiltrating T-cells of mismatch-repair deficient endometrial cancers.

TL;DR: The increased number of FoxP3 + regulatory T cells in mismatch repair-deficient endometrial cancers suggests that combination therapy by targeting both regulatory T cells and immune checkpoints may be warranted to improve clinical efficacy.
